On an expedition to discover a new trade route to the Far East for Spain, Christopher Columbus landed in a "New World." Young readers will enjoy this sensitively written new book about Columbus’ famous journey and the results of his interaction with the indigenous people. Full-color maps and illustrations and clear text help explain what life was like for explorers at sea in the 1400s. Also featured is an easy-to-follow recipe that the crew on an explorer’s ship would have eaten.
